Information about Jaye
I am a Qualified and Fluent Languages Teacher and have a High 2:1 degree in modern languages (French, Spanish and Portuguese) and a Post Graduate Certificate in Education. I teach French and Spanish from beginner to to degree level for ALL ages in both individual or group lessons.
I am very flexible in my teaching approach and work closely with students to establish goals and how best to achieve them. I take pride in my ability to evaluate learner`s needs and to adapt teaching methods to suit. I am friendly, patient and enthusiastic about my languages and enjoy using a range of teaching approaches in order to teach a real understanding of language rather than teaching set phrases.
I write a lot of my own materials and have a quite a collection of text books and exam papers to suit all examination boards.
I am happy to discuss my approaches prior to any lesson and welcome messages or calls for peace of mind.
Availability: Lessons are flexible, as and when you are free, no need to block book or keep to the same time slot, I understand most learners will be fitting lessons around a busy work or school day and do my best to accommodate.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I have tutored part time since 2015 and full time since 2016 and really enjoy it. I have a good insight into how people learn and how best to adapt my approach to suit every individual. Prior to tutoring, I taught full time in a very successful boarding school from key stage 3 through to GCSE and A Level. Alongside tutoring, I also work at The University of Birmingham supporting pupils with additional needs.
I currently teach both adults and school pupils for examination preparation, holiday language, career or business language or to offer extra support to a pupil`s language lessons at school (in this situation, I can work with the school teacher).
I have taught in both mainstream state and private schools teaching key stages 3-5 to all of the examination boards and I have traveled and lived in Spain, France and South America myself so understand how to tailor lessons for travelers or gap year students.

Jaye is friendly and knowledgeable. She has been very helpful, especially with my Independent Research Project. Her teaching is flexible and focusses on areas that I have asked for. I really enjoy my lessons with Jaye.

Two sessions in with Jaye and feeling much more optimistic about my Spanish learning. She has a great understanding of the language and how to help students progress in a way that`s fun and meaningful. She`s supportive and uses good analogies and helpful tips for learning key concepts. Definitely recommend.
